This week our special guest will be Alan Franzluebbers, USDA Plant Science Research Ecologist to talk about "Improving Soil Health”. Soil health is important to farmers and gardeners alike because a healthy soil produces healthy plants. Healthy soil gives us clean air and water, bountiful crops and forests, productive grazing lands, diverse wildlife, and beautiful landscapes. Alan Franzluebbers will discuss ways to increase soil health.
Alan is a Research Ecologist with the USDA Agricultural Research Service in Raleigh, North Carolina. His research focuses on soil ecology and management for the development of more sustainable agricultural systems, along with multi-species cover cropping, agroforestry, integrated crop-livestock systems, nitrogen management, and conservation-tillage cropping. He is also the co-director of the Southeast Regional Climate Hub.
